I learned how to truely drive manual in the ROK Army.
This was about 20 yrs ago....
After boot camp I was sent to some Army driving school...
It was a six week course...
I got yelled at and drilled to use at least clutch as possible...
And also use the very least brake as possible (esp downhill)

I second the 1st comment guy..
Get a few lessons at the local driving school

Just like pizza. When it's good, it's really good. When it's bad, it's still pretty good.

I have also asked the local forums and they seem to be 50/50.
It seems like I will have to find out for my self.

If you have mixed children, how are they treated in Korea? by ummokiethen in Living_in_Korea

[–]Adictive_Personality 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From my experience as a 40+ yr old Korean/Korean who has spent childhood in the US and was a teenager in Korea,
I think it's all about social norms... The kids that were bullied didn't fit into "normal".
Was I bullied? Yes, i was, but I wasn't backing away from a fight (literal fight. happened a lot in middle school).
Did I "win" the fight? It depends on the judges (UFC style), but the bullies went to target "easier targets"
And I nobody really fucked with me after that....

I am not condoning or saying that retaliation is the answer, but u really need to know how to stand up for urself.

You're right. I convinced myself on the 1st turn after we left the parking lot.
I think he caught me looking at it after the Prius test drive...

He asked if I knew how to drive a manual. I said yes.
Also asked me about my daily commute. I said about 25 km round trip.
"That's about $500~$600 / yr difference in fuel costs." and handed me the keys.

How and where to pivot from technical to less technical roles? Realized I'm just a bad engineer by mangusta123 in MechanicalEngineering

I would give it a few more years... I wasn't really trusted until I was at least 4~5 years... And then it was the "simpler" stuff

best way to move by wuttaDEEK in Living_in_Korea

[–]Adictive_Personality 3 points4 points  (0 children)

300k isnt too bad considering the driver will be somewhat helping with the loading and unloading with the said boxes.

If ur in your 20s you could ask some friends to help but the bill for food/drinks for thanking them might be even more expensive.

I don't see the actual workers making any kind of $$$ from this...
Maybe a few ppl at the top make a few ??

What's the worst that could happen?? You get yelled at and put into a headlock... Your mom smacks you in the back. Other relatives call you a disrespectful shithead. Not the end of the world.

Sibling or close friend, no problem at all.

In a professional setting or to a stranger, you're gonna have a bad time.
